2025 Reading Challenge discussion

Hi! This will be the place I will keep track of all the reading challenges I do this year. I'm always taking on reading challenges but then not keeping track of progress and then giving up so I'm hoping that having them all in one place will help. I'll be making a separate post for each type of challenge (monthly. yearly, quarterly).

My goal this year is to read 50 books. I'll keep a short count here, if you want to see a list of what I've read and reviews that thread is here
